To prevent a device from waking your computer
  1. Open Device Manager by clicking the Start button 4f6cbd09-148c-4dd8-b1f2-48f232a2fd33_818, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager.‌ 18abb370-ac1e-4b6b-b663-e028a75bf05b_48. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  2. In the list of hardware categories, find the device that you want to prevent from waking your computer, and then double-click the device name.

  3. Click the Power Management tab and then clear the Allow this device to wake the computer check box.

  4. Click OK.
